Rates ratio is one of the very useful concept in Math. The rate is defined as the ratio between two different quantities. Ratio is the quantitative comparison between the given quantities. Therefore the rate ratio is where two different quantities are compared. Some examples for the rate ratio are centimeter per minute written as cm/min; kilometers per second written as km/sec.

Example 1: A vehicle A can cover a distance of 100 miles in 2 hours. Another vehicle B covers 90 miles in 3 hours. Find who travels faster.

A travels with the speed (distance per time ratio i.e. miles travelled per hour) = 100 miles/ 2 hours = 50 miles/ hours.

Your tutor has been such an inspiration to me as I have difficulty getting some of the physics concepts down and truly understanding them. She takes the time to fully explain each and every aspect of any problem I might ask for help and always with encouragement and humor.
